Low fat popcorn cookies
24 Servings
Ingredients
| Quantity | Ingredient | |
|---|---|---|
| 3 | cups | Popped popcorn; unsalted |
| 2 | Egg whites | |
| ¼ | cup | Sugar |
| ¼ | teaspoon | Cinnamon |
| ¼ | teaspoon | Salt |
| 1 | teaspoon | Vanilla |
Directions
One cup at a time, grind the popcorn in a blender at low speed until it's fine. The goal is 1-½ cups of finely ground popcorn.
In a medium bowl, beat 2 egg whites on high speed until soft peaks form. Make a meringue by gradually adding ¼ cup sugar; beat until egg whites are stiff. Next, beat in cinnamon, salt and vanilla.
Gently fold in ground popcorn and ⅓ cup unsweetened shredded coconut. Place rounded tablespoonfuls onto a greased baking sheed (or use parchment paper). Bake at 325 degrees 10 to 12 minutes or until lightly browned. MM Wrenn
